WINE REGION:
![Outline of Paso Robles](https://images.firstleaf.com/taxons/1848/normal/California_Central_Coast.png?1616011014)
Paso Robles
California's fastest-growing wine region is quickly gaining an international reputation for its innovative and boundary-breaking wines. Located halfway between LA and San Francisco, the Paso Robles AVA in San Luis Obispo County has two main zones. The eastern side has a hot and sunny climate with deep, rich soils producing plush, fruity wines with sweet ripe flavors. To the west, the cooling influence of the Pacific brings a zingy backbone to rich Zinfandel and Rhône favorites like Syrah and Viognier. Italian varietals like Sangiovese and Nebbiolo are also favorites of Paso Robles grape growers and wine drinkers.

"Herbal, savory component marries well with dark fruit. Mid-weight. Restrained, elegant, long and graceful, but finishes sweet. Extra dimension here." –Michael Apstein, 2021 Critics Challenge International Wine & Spirits Competition

Linguist Estates
Every language has its own beautiful harmony, and only a true master linguist can identify each nuanced cadence and modulation among them. Winemaking is similar; one must listen to every vintage, pick up on the subtleties of a region's terroir and identify the effects on each varietal. Few achieve master status, but Linguist Estates represents just that in every bottle. Our wines share the intricacies of California's climate and winemaking with a rhythmic elegance you will be delighted to experience.
